Live, Video: Find classical music concert, opera, ballet and dance reviews | In the silence of the secret night (V molchan'ji nochi tajnoj), Op.4 no.3

Never mind the piano concerto marathons, 2023 will not see a finer anniversary tribute to Rachmaninov than this song recital.

Typically interesting programming from Jurowski gave us the Proms premiere of Adès’ Concerto for Piano and Orchestra, combined with saucy Weill and forcefully modern Rachmaninov. 

Kirill Gerstein joins the LPO for a robust Rachmaninov anniversary tribute, while Szeps-Znaider makes his LPO debut as a conductor. 

International duo give immaculate recital of Beethoven, Schubert, Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninov songs.

First the beauty, then the words at a Renée Fleming Carnegie Hall Song Recital.

Two of the world’s most sought-after opera singers giving Lieder recitals on the same night. The kind of painful choice which Viennese musical institutions and their chaotic schedules throw up all too regularly. I went for Nina Stemme over Jonas Kaufmann on the basis that she gives fewer solo recitals, despite harbouring reservations about how her big voice would fare in this repertoire.
